Yup, he's posted it over there too. Perhaps he was just saying farewell.

I wouldn't mind finding one of them in my garage... it would be up for sale within minutes and I would finish my c5z and put the rest in the bank

That doesn't look like a c5 Z06! The tail lights are waaaay different.


Oh wait. I see you said CSEVEN Z06. Didn't know they made one. Stopped paying attention after buying my '03.


(Nice ride bro)

FINALLY someone READ - thanks dude
Thought I would share the excitement with my fellow C5 owners

Kept the C5 and added the C7 - tail lights and all

And YES I did post in the C7 ZO6 section.

WTF is up with you guys?

I certainly don't mind people sharing when it is relevant but it seems like some c7 owners feel the need to post their cars in other sections other than the c7 forum... I don't go to that section myself but I'd be willing to bet there aren't guys posting pics of their c5's in there... to me it seems like some may be trying to provoke jealousy from others, who knows?... personally I could care less about the c7, I could get rid of my c5z and get one but why would I downgrade to a much slower and uglier car
